Bravo, Secretary Pompeo! What a difference from Obama, and John Kerry, and Susan Rice.

Iran berates US over police killing, slams racism

DUBAI (REUTERS) – Iran took Washington to task on Saturday (May 30) over the alleged killing of an unarmed black man by a white police officer that sparked protests in the United States over racial injustice.

“Some don’t think #BlackLivesMatter,” Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Twitter. “To those of us who do: it is long overdue for the entire world to wage war against racism. Time for a #WorldAgainstRacism.”

“The US government is squandering its citizens’ resources,” Mr Zarif said in a tweet echoing a 2018 statement from US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. The tweet featured an image of Mr Pompeo’s statement addressing protests in Iran, but with elements crossed out and replaced.

Iran’s foreign ministry earlier denounced the killing in Minneapolis, which has sparked protests in several cities, some of which have turned violent.

A ministry statement condemned what it called “the tragic murder of black people and deadly racial discrimination in the United States”.

“The voices of the protesters must be heard,” it said.

Separately, Iran’s interior minister indicated in an interview that the death toll in November street protests in Iran over fuel price hikes was below 225.

The reported toll has varied between an Amnesty International figure of over 300 and a Reuters account of 1,500 – both dismissed by the authorities.

Interior Minister Abdolreza Rahmani Fazli told state television late on Saturday that 40 to 45 of those killed in the unrest making up 20 per cent of the death toll had not been shot by security forces.

Islam has brought NOTHING to the world other than death and destruction since it was created in the crazed mind of a pedophile war lord over 1400 years ago.

yes, islam is a mafia and all types of mafias are just predators of the ordinary citizens and businesses. The added value is void. The cost is unlimited. Mohammad is the destroyer of worlds

That’s one reason I only buy Hebrew National hot dogs — they’re guaranteed not halal! I thought Sabra was an Israeli company but I’ve recently learned their not.

Muslims still enslave black people today. They have a long history of brutality towards black people. And yet many black Americans embrace Islam. There is no salvation there.
